(WebCatalog Talk) Date: 1/5/00 9:00 AMHi all, Has anyone had the need to build a search that finds a list of cities or locations that are within a proximity of the visitor's zip code, city and state, or other location marker? I need to have a sort of dealer finder type search that finds a list of dealers in order of proximity. Is the zip code the best object to build this off of? Is there data available that could be used to extract relational proximity listings based on zip code? Or would city and state be better? Maybe area code? Any ideas?Thanks, -- Mike Davis, President Network 13, Inc. http://www.network13.net/ LocalsOnline.com, Inc. http://www.localsonline.com/ Voice Of The Internet, Inc. http://www.voiceoftheinternet.com/ ICQ: 6572635If I had more time, I would have written less. - Mark Twain ------------------------------------------------------------- Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.
